Some of the issue we had with v1 is that it's trying to do everything at once, and some of these things are better used in steps, instead of all at once.  One thing leads to the other better than doing both at a time.  Some of it was boredom.  Some of it was resistance.  I think we'll be doing much better with fear and resistance this time around, but I don't see any way out with the other two.  The only way to do them is a multi stage set.

Interesting that the models are showing such a close race between 1 and 3+1.  So far they are both strongly showing merit, and relatively balancing out.  I'll have to start modeling what happens for 1, 3+1 or if I release it for both.  It wouldn't be a lot of difference between a single stage and stage 4, although there would be differences.  Maybe both is the best option.  Will add that to the options I am running through the models.  In the end, we want what works best... because that is what's going to be most worth spending the money on.

I get the feeling the way this has been dragging on forever and it has been so difficult to get anything accomplished that someone or something does not want me to make this.

Regarding the UMS v2 - 1 stage or 3+1 stages question.

Here's a possibility that may not have been considered:

So all 5.75G subs have a secondary ASRB ratio (i.e use the sub X days on and Y days off).

It may be possible to get around the issue of boredom with a single stage UMS by adding a 3rd order ASRB ratio. For example - use the sub for 3 days on and 5 days off for 80 days - then take an additional 10 days off.

The 15 days off at the end could be enough time to get around the boredom, but not long enough to lose the momentum.

It's worth a shot looking at the models to see if a 3rd order ASRB ratio would increase the effectiveness of the sub - for all the users in general, and specifically for the sub-category of users which experience subconscious boredom.

I would prefer a single stage,not because it's more affordable no. Because I feel I want all of the script at one time. But you know better ofc

This makes no sense since it's not been released.
